What does physical therapy treat?

Physical therapy is a medical specialty that treats a wide range of conditions across all ages. We focus on restoring movement and function, reducing pain, and preventing disability. Physical therapy can effectively treat:

• Painful joint and muscle conditions:

 We effectively treat pain in various areas of the body, including the neck, back, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, waist, hip, knee, foot, ankle, and heel areas (e.g., meniscus, heel spur, joint calcifications).

• Musculoskeletal pain:

We help manage pain from conditions like arthritis, as well as injuries and wear-and-tear in muscles and joints.

 Our rehabilitation programs are essential for patients recovering from joint replacements, ligament repairs, pre- and post-prosthesis surgeries, and other orthopedic procedures.

 We treat a wide range of injuries, including sports injuries (e.g., ligament tears, meniscus injuries),work-related injuries, and injuries from accidents.
